Since the Wane men didn't resist, thereby avoiding a Woody fight, only one arrest was made—a Wan member accused) of “carrying a concealed weapon.” Now, we are strong for law and order, but anybody who believes it’s for just one side is just as bad as the KKK. In fact, that’s the disgrace about the Wan: It believes in its own law, for its own pur poses. So, we nominate for membership in the Ku Klux Klan those Indians who proved1 they can shoot guns in the night, wield dubs and fists, and instigate lawless disorder.

How far up the line Most Eastern Carolina Farms Are Fire Hazard That’s the opinion of R. S. Doug lass, forestry specialist for the N. C.

Then you can maintain them with ran be maintained . roads and firelanes if they are worked with a hush and bog harrow reversed to pull the dirt ip until they are level, and then maintained with a gang disk to leave them level. Douglass warns that often a pre pared and maintained firelane is the difference between stopping a serious fire and losing a stand of timber that would take 25 years or more to replace. “Fire is a serious hazard in timber growing, and spending a little money to reduce the hazard is an excellent invest ment,” he concludes.
